You took the words out of my mouth. I would reserve scorn for non-believers who use religion for their own purposes. If Jameka believes but is mistaken in her path, she is human and maybe religiously immature.

Everyone's beliefs are different. I firmly believe in public prayer if you aren't shy about doing it and if you feel the need to pray. I pray in public and in private. In the house there just is not that much privacy!

Dick is who he is. If Jameka hadn't got on her high religious horse he would not have attacted her. He is not right but she is worse because she decided to bring her religious beliefs into a tv reality show and use God in the process. I, as a Chirstain am embarressed and angry at her behavior.

Whenever I say the word "despicable", I think of Daffy Duck.

Why was Jameka allowed to bring the Bible into the house, but no one else could bring something to read?

Tre, no, it's not. Currently, Dick is outside smoking. He is the only HG that is awake.

It is no secret that I do not like Dick and would love to see him gone from the show, because he is a loud buffoon but he has a right to rant and rave as long as he doesn't make it personal (which he does).>>>Lainee

Every single houseguest has made it personal. I saw the incident where Jeameka called Dicks mother thhe b. She antagonized him for that whole argument. Dick is trash and he know he is trash. Jemaka is trash and she ascts holier than thou. Big Brother even laughs ar Jameka when she praying they play the organ music. DIck knows people will dilike him for his behavior in the house,Jameka has no clue. I would like to be a fly on the wall when she reads some of the messageboards about her.

And I as a Christian am very proud that Jameka has publicly acknowledged her beliefs. If more Christians would do as Jameka instead of hiding behind a wall of insecurity about how they would be perceived the world would be a much better place! Just my humble opinion, of course.

Edited to add: Thank you Woody!

Lainee, I don't have a problem with Jameka in that regard either. How she uses her faith is entirely up to her in my opinion and not up to me to say if she's doing it rightly or wrongly or in the wrong place or context. She represents only herself.

For some reason, Taxi, BB has allowed the bible and the Quran in the house.

Not sure why, as Dick pointed out that non-religious people are discriminated against because his 'bible' is the "A to Z or Porn" LOL!! That is about the only thing I agree with Dick on, since I don't really think religion should have anything to do with BB.

You cannot stop a contestant from bringing their beliefs into the house. But I think that NO books of any kind should be brought into the house, since reading is supposed to be something that a contestant is supposed to be deprived of, in addition to TV, radio, and other media.

(Oh, and no problem Lainee, I was just expressing my opinion!)

I also think Jameka has every right to talk about her christianity but when she does fans also have the right to take offence to her version of christianity. Many of us are christians but I have NEVER heard anyone say "God is so gangsta". I have seen people bring religion into BB to some level every year but it never seems to be recieved well in the context of the game. I think it is because most people really don't believe God is really that concerned who wins BB. If they use it more as a support and strength to get them through the time as we usually do in real life it may be recieved better. But, when someone starts saying that God is determining who will win it works against the person. Jameka has already said she shouldn't have said anything about God wanting her to play hard for Jen in the veto contest. What I don't understand is why she made such a spectical of herself after the HOH comp laying on the floor upstairs praying. I can only conclude it was a very difficult time for her and she was genuinely seeking comfort from her religion. Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do. Life isn't easy in the BB house.

Different day, same old debate guys! Eric is Evil, Dick is Evil, Jameka is or is not a good Christian.

Really, it's getting old!

Now . . . anyone listening to Dick run down his stay here?

And Pinnie, I agree with you...as a human many of the houseguests are very embarrassing. When I read the threads, I sometimes wonder if we are watching BB on the Enterprise...or maybe The Borg Version of BB! LOL

Bibles have been allowed in all the BBs, Taximomg. And no other reading materials are allowed in order to not give the HGs an out for not interacting with the rest of the HGs. I supposed CBS figured they would not risk being accused of suppressing religious freedom. In seasons past, I've seen folks reading the bible just to have something to read. I don't have a problem with HGs who want to bring their bibles, but it has been a source or criticism every time.
